QUE SERA SERA

Song : QUE SERA SERA


While im in da midst of marking legal essays, at times, I juz loose da guts. Wasn’t really pointing at studs, cuz it aint fair. I was once a stud. Studs are kids n kids are always kids. Got it?


U cant expect 'em 2 make no mistakes n really give u ‘feel-gud’ feeling when marking. Indeed u juz av to take it or leave it. U cant be an Oximoron, (niu vocab dat I learnt from my stud) a single person who enjoys two things in different. 4 example he enjoys teaching but hate marking. How possible is dat?


Wait, is dat da rite explanation wif da rite example, Justiny?


Occay, I’m currently in a bit of quandary, n I need ur help (nothing much really)


Da fact dat, I’ve got a message text from a friend asking whether I’m interested to be an IP (Intellectual Property) solicitor in one of da city chambers in Singapore. I know working abroad is sumting dat I really look forward to. But not Singapore, I guess =(


D day before da test, Aliff and I had a lunch @ AC. He sed dat da country’s happening-best rated radio station XXX.fm is recruiting new DJs and he strongly urged me to apply. He can see da potentials in me. Thanks dear. Da point is – WOW, being a DJ is sumting dat I never thot of b4. Am I day-dreaming or sumting? Mum will surely freak. Matilaaaaaaaaaaaa


Sumtimes (most of da times) I’ve been thinking is lecturing meant 2 b da job 4 me? Admitted, I enjoy it still but da future is still vague n ambiguous. Uncertainties lie everywhere. N I seriously dun know wat will happen next.


Heaven knows how much I hate dis kinda feeling



For dat I need a show of hands?


POLL: DO U HONESTLY BELIEVE THAT I SHALL PURSUIT LECTURING OR SHUD I JUZ QUIT?



Time tells. Leave ur opinion ere.

oMg. I guess i'll be the 1st to comment on ur latest post. If u asked me, of course i don't want u to quit lecturing. If u do, we will lose the only craziest/fun/*young* lecturer.

But then again, it's really very much ur choice. If u r not happy with ur current job, dont tink 2ce bout switching. Cz tis is ur career ur putting on hold. U'll be stuck wiv it 4ever

So, be stuck wiv sth u enjoy(but others disagree) or sth u HATE doing (but agreed by ur mum)

Ady said...

Haha. Owh....there's a comment section. That's totally new to me. Haha.

See, i am not ewven commenting bout the torture and all. I'm being nice =P

If you ask me, I don't think that lecturing is such a great job after all. Of course if it's your choice than no one is in the position to stop you from doing what you like. But I believe you have so much potential to achieve greatness if you pursue a career in law and besides, you can earn wayyyyyyyyyy much more than now.

Money is everything although you may not think so now.Believe me, you'll learn to treasure the value of money soon...Choosing a job that you're interested in or that you enjoy can not guarantee your future......

Correct me if I'm wrong...But these are just my personal opinions......

Dear Anonymous,

Forgive me,I wud rather opt a job dat gives me more satisfatcion and enjoyment even its not great. All i look for is da quality of time where u can pursue ur aims and dreams even da profession doesnt offer a good pay.

I know i am yet to see da power of money. but i can assure you, i've seen and witnessed da power of enjoyment and satisfaction. also the power of love and sense of belonging that I obtained from what I am doing now. I feel so much welcomed and accepted and really cherish every single moment spent with my students. They are da bomb. they made my day and spice up my life with all they have

wat else cud i ask for?

finally i've come to realise dat, dere's nothing much i can do to change da society should i take up practising law. but I wud definitely have a high chance to make a difference in my students.

eagerly waiting your reply


thanking u for ur twocents,
xxx

Unknown said...

thanks angah,

setuju sgt dengan pendapat ko. jgn terlalu mudah mengalah and cuba hingga jaya. manalah kite nak tahu sesuatu bukan utk kite klu kita tak mencuba sehingga akhir. so yeah, i'll give myself sumtime to adjust wif dis exciting yet challenging ambience.

May i got thru well

p/s dgr chiter ko dah dpt keje? whereabout?

frens forever,

Ady said...

U missed out sth...I said *young* not young. See the difference =P

And yea, I have to admit tht it's ur class tht we all look forwrd to daily. Ex on fri.

Plus, we know we are too important to you. Dont need to tell us again. Cause we ALREADY know. =)

June said...

Hey we loves u too rite ady? XD lolz~~ =] Ady will say "Yeaaaaaaaa"
Hehe.. I think... Zokhri ur the kind of person who will do great in whatever u set ur mind on ^^ so no worries. Enjoy life. It's too short to waste XD

Anonymous said...

Hi again, I know how you feel...Probably you feel loved and popular surrounded by students who like you all day...I hope you won't mind if I still insist on my opinion...It's just an opinion so......
Perhaps I was influenced by my parents since young. They always tell me to get a professional job so I would never ever have to worry about whether I have enough money to put rice on my table. They will stop supporting me once I get a job. To me, I hope for nothing more in life than to enjoy it to the fullest and that is only achievable if I have sufficient amounts of money...I'm having a hard time now because I can't ever do annything I like so I realised that with a good job hopefully in the future I'll be able to fulfill my dream to travel around the world, to live in comfort and to purchase anything my heart desires. Besides, you'll age faster if you keep stressing and worrying about money!!!
You probably really adore your students but the truth is...How many of them will remember you after their gone? Maybe you'll say that you'll be friends with them but how many will be that lucky? You certainly can't like everyone and some will be left out so it's never really fair to everyone...

Tell me what you think...

Unknown said...

-ady,

Hi anonymous

naaaaa dere's nothing wrong for voicing ur two cents. As far as asignofthecreator is concerned both the blog and the blogger have nothing to feel offended should you offer a different spectrum. we shall enjoy the similarities we have owned and appreciate the differences.

I believe the reason why we stay in difference is becz the way we perceive and look at life distinguishedly. our ways to enjoy life isnt same. For example, u view that money could bring u satisfaction and enjoyment whereas I regard satisfaction and enjoyment come not necessarily with money. Money cant buy happiness, love and respect.

At the end of the day, we all want to liveour life to the fullest. but the means and ways to get to da destination that brings our opinion apart. and dere's nothing wrong shud one prefers anyone of these two views. perhaps those who share da same background and history like you wouldprobably opt for the first option i.e. money is everything as it can bring us to happiness and satisfaction

i am not fear shud all my students forget me in the future. im lecturing with full of sincere and expect nothing in return. so long dat i know i've made a difference in their life, dats more than an appreciation to me. shud they suceed and become better and richer than me in the future, and forgot about me, i've no hard feelings to them. cuz i know i've made a difference in their life and perhaps dat has brought them to glory.

n i dun expect them to like me either. its one freedom whether to admire or to hate anyone he/she wishes. all i know and im doing is to try my very best to educate and teach them about life and love. da rest is up to them and to Him

eagerly waiting ur response =)

ANGAH,

well u read my students' mind. n im sure they'll second ur assertions. memandai jer ko leh tahu pasal students aku kan.

so trimas sbb terus bagi sokongan alhamdulillah finally God has answer yr prayers. Nothing ask cud i give except for a congratulation wish on your new profession. May u find it well, survive towards da end.

p/s biler nak dating nie?

Hello again,

Actually, my reason for choosing money is not because I'm deprived of it. I consider myself extremely privelleged in this matter. However I insisted on my opinions because I have a fear in my heart. I fear that one day when I'm older I will not be able to continue supporting my current lifestyle. I wish not to lose all that I have now and that is why I insist on being financially stable first, then pursuing whatever ones interest is. In my case, I hope to be an accomplished musician and would love to do voluntary work in zoos and this can only come true when I no longer have worries about my finances. I do not wish to regret my decisions when I'm older.

True, money can't buy real happiness...But without it, are you any better off? Don't you agree with me that money can buy health and comfort in life? I.e A married couple may be very much in love but if they argue over money problems everyday do you think that their marriage will last? Or will a sick man be happy if he dosen't have money to pay for his medical bills? Money may not bring true happiness but it can certainly bring you one step closer to it.

What I can say in conclusion to your responses is that you truly are a born lecturer at heart and nothing anyone can say will change your mind to continue lecturing....We really don't see many people like yourselves nowadays who possess the dedication and passion for teaching and I really respect that...

I respect your opinion and decisions and I believe that everyone is different and that we should all live life with our best interests at heart...I hope that one day you can be proud of your students and that they in return will be proud to have such a wonderful lecturer...

Cheers

hi there anonymous..

Well..im also a student of this so called young/funny/amazing leturer Zokhri who make his students life wonderful each everyday...YES HE IS ONE IN A MILLION...we can hardly find such dedicated lecturer like him nowadays...We have 2agree with this.

But..in ur previous comment..i do agree with u that having money can certainly bring out life one step closer to happiness..but ..have u ever think that...money can buy once's life of something??U've mentioned that money can pay medical bills n enable married couples to have better life just bcus they do not need2worry money n hence will be able2avoid ...oh...but 2me.it doesn't seemed 2be like dat...Have u ever thought of those patients who r having cancer...n out of 100% their percentage2survive is like not more than 50% n sad 2say most of them just left this wonderful world even if they have lots of money...but still.they can't buy back their healthy life..but i believe..in the period of time that they r suffering with pain n sorrow...supports from his/her friends is the one who makes their life meaningful...wat if this person has tonnes of money...but noone comes 2visit them in the ward...i think ..this is the wort thing that ever happened in one's life..this will be a terrible feeling before he/she left...N u also mentioned that...married couples will have better life if they have money...ooo..in my opinion...i dont really agree with this...bcus if this couple really love each other...money will not be the factor that will caused them to get divorce...perhaps..love is powerful enough2overcome all these...if their love 2each other is true..then nothing is able2 affect their marriage...well...this is just my opinion..no offence...:)..perhaps....poor couples lead a better n happier life than richer ones bcus they lead a simple life n does not demand too much on luxury materials..so...to me.money isn't everything..

Last but not least..Zokhri...go ahead n do wat u think u like...noone can every change ur mind...we ,ur students precious u n appreciates u alot...ur effort n kindness will never be forgotten but will be buried in our heart for a life time..no matter wat s ur decision in future...u will always have my surport n all ur students in taylor's..bcus u mean a lot to us..i bet all of us have the same opinions about this matter...so...just follow ur heart...we will never forget ur effort..n we will never let u down *assuming..lol..*...dats all..U r a nice lecturer...so keep it up...:)

Regards,
Aggie...

Dear Anonymous,

It seems to me (I cud be wrong) dat u r so worry about da uncertainty of the future u r about to inherit. U've put too much concerned about tomorrow dat makes u feel unsecured and not guaranteed. I appreciate the concern too, in fact we shud all av a plan of the future we r goin too face. but have u ever thot, even one puts too much conern about it, is da future certainly will come?

I dun think so. we dunno when we gonna live dis mortal earth for an eternal rest. hence life's short n we shud n (must) enjoy it to da fullest wif everything dat we have. we simply dunno whether there is still be a tomorrow for us. =(

forgive me, but i dun think money can buy health. health depends on a subjective surrounding. if u lead ur life healthyly, conventionally, u wont be ill. even u r ill, u just one somebody to care bout u to keep on loving u till u recovered. and may I know can we buy someone dat we love to take care of us?

on da married couple example, it depends. if both are materialistic and always want to live in comfort always, forever they will be in comfort. speaking of comfort, it depends on definition by a subject. i may regard comfort is something that i have sumting to wear,sum foods to eat and a place to stay. i dun need expensive clothes, nice expensive 5* food, or a luxorious bungalow to live. i appreciate with everything that i have and I capable to own.

thanks for da conclusion anonymous. i value ur sincere thoughts and motivational words. yeah I've chosen to be in dis path and i gonna survive to the end. i wont give up just cuz of few lil things as I really look forward to a better future as a prominent world-class academic.

i appreciate all of ur efforts and time taken to visit and leave ur 'footprints' in my blog. Please visit often as dere are more constructive n controverial discussions lining up and I really look forward to reading your piece-of-mind.

Just wanting u to know, even dat my students dont feel proud having me as their lecturers, but Im truly proud n grateful for having them once in my life

Yours truly

Hi Mysterious Gurl ( u no longer a mystery to me )

I truly appreciate ur accomplishments. indeed they wont put me into a nice state or into a feeling of disatisfaction, but they make me strive harder to give the best out of the best to my students.

Finally my stud has spoken her mind and Im really glad u able to pur ur arguments forward to let them be conveyed to others. well constructive tho. Its true indeed. I always think when I'm sick or lying on bed dying, i dun expect to receive a first class treatment in the best excellent infirmary. All I want is to have somebody dat i really love staying by my side n tell me - 'dun wery zokhri,im here with you n its all gonna be alrite. trust me'

-walaoooooo if i have dat moment, even i die also, i'll die with peace one- haha

thanks for da last para. yeah I vow that i will stay in dis path and forever be ur friend and accompany. we just started college and its still early to leave each other. i will draw a nice memory of taylors in my mind and i just about to do it. hence i could i leave?



Love u always aggie,
